In defense of the first response I took a look at his threads:
This doesn’t smell like the work of a bigot. And his last activity was shortly after he posted that message. I’m gonna defend the guy for now, because I’ve been guilty of making stupid sarcastic remarks that were mistaken as well.
Oh yeah, and his sig is a world conquering bunny. Nothing evil there.
Mostly only popular for possibly the first-ever interactive upskirt. Yes, video game upskirt. There was a playable female character, and a trampoline, see…
By the way, jjjjjimmmm, can I borrow a condom if I’m *not * staying over? I need a better understanding of how this houseguest/prophylactic borrowing business works.
So matt_mcl, did you ever get an explanation from this houseguest gone willy-nilly?
I also looked at her homepage. She’s a 911 dispatcher. Her posts also show that she logs on at work (presumably there are not calls every second) and so anyone could’ve posted that. She usually remembers the shift key too. I’m with ya on defending her until she returns to do it herself.
Well, FTR, my reply stands to the person who posted that, with the idea in mind that a co-worker might have been nosing around here via her account, and couldn’t resist posting.
Actually, I think I’d prefer that. At least the sheep thing was witty.
Anyway, thanks to all y’all who looked at my posting history and figured that probably wasn’t me, and gave me the benefit of the doubt. I do indeed do all my posting from work, since I don’t have internet access at home at the moment, and didn’t see this until I logged on tonight. If I ever find the perpetrator there will be much smackdown administered. :mad: <— (mean supervisor face)
Enough hijacking. Everyone point and laugh at matt_mcl’s clueless houseguests!
And it’s followed him around for years. This isn’t the kind of thing you want following you around (the question comes to my mind - do you work with someone who thinks what they posted was funny, or someone who truly believes that?)
Especially if said person is a 911 dispatcher as well. If they truly believe that, what will their response be if a gay person calls up and says “Help, my partner was just beat up by a couple of guys!” “You’re gay, you deserve it,” and hang up?
Twasnt pedantic my dear, twas gleaned from her homepage. And posting from work? Why, search the posts she’s made; she says it herself! I did my research before accusing anyone of being a duck…I mean, a bigot. Can you say the same?
Apologies for the hijack, but I won’t be faulted for the quality of my research!
Again, the sentiment was posted, and I spoke to the person who posted it. It just so happens that another Doper was Hal Bristoned, so the comment was not directed at them. Get it?
